A Hardin County man is in custody on child sexual abuse charges.

Joseph Blake Bowling of Elizabethtown faces 10 counts of Class C Felony Distribution of Matter Portraying a Sexual Performance by a Minor Under 12-Years-Old following his arrest Thursday.

According to the Kentucky State Police, Bowling was arrested as the result of an undercover Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force investigation. The KSP Electronic Crime Branch began an investigation of Bowling after it was discovered he was allegedly sharing images of child sexual exploitation online. Bowling was interviewed by investigators on April 10, and equipment used to facilitate the crime was seized and taken to a forensic laboratory for examination. Bowling was placed under arrest following the interview.

Bowling was lodged in the Hardin County Detention Center, where he is being held on a $250,000 cash bond. He is due to appear for a video arraignment Monday morning. The KSP’s investigation is ongoing.
